well, this is starting in a few hours. thus far everything very
predictable - QP saw stoner firmly entrenched up front, rossi behind,
lorenzo follows. hayden's QP was cut short by a highside, and
hopefully he is not too sore for the race.

I guess the rain wasn't predictable.

But cancelling the race if it rained was. And so was everyone running
round like headless chickens when it happened.

They're now saying a re-run on Monday. Which will screw with all the TV
schedules, force the teams to spend a load more money and runs the risk
of it all happening again. So will Qatar pick up the tab?

Sometimes it looks like Dorna (and the BBC) couldn't run a trolley race
in a Tesco's car park.
